Honest review

What could be better

  • The hotel must urgently align service protocols with Marriott Bonvoy standards, eliminating the unacceptable practice of denying complimentary Platinum breakfast access and refusing the guaranteed 4:00 PM late checkout for eligible members.
  • Food and beverage quality/execution require a drastic overhaul, addressing widespread reports of "underwhelming," "limited," and highly overpriced breakfast offerings, and eliminating fundamental dining flaws like serving poor quality room service (non-Neapolitan pizza).
  • Management must immediately address the poor guest value and environmental factors, eliminating the noise and fish/cooking odors filtering into lower-floor rooms from the vibrant street and ensuring all booked rooms and beds (King vs. Queen) are correctly allocated upon arrival.

When affiliate links earn a small commission, we disclose it; it never influences which hotels appear here.
